Rick, Sandy, Jim & families;
We were saddened to hear of your Mom's passing. We have so many happy memories of her & your Dad. Hard to believe that 56 years ago July we drove to Winnipeg to visit all of you on our honeymoon! Our stay with your parents at the time of the train derailment in Mississauga is a fond memory too. Our favourite birthday cake is your Mom's recipe for Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake. In fact, we just had the last of one at supper as I had made it last Sat. for a family dinner on Sunday. She will never be forgotten when I pull out that recipe!
Our sincere sympathy to all of you. She will be missed but remembered with love.
Sue & Earle

Dear Rick, Sandy & Jim, so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. As kids, I always loved it when our families got together, when we lived on Newcross Drive, at your cottage or at Mom & Dad's farm. Your Mom & Dad were very special people!

Sandy, Rick, Jim and families,
Your Mom's kindness and cheerful nature was generously shared with not only her family but with all of her children's friends, and I was lucky enough to have been included in that circle. I grieve for your loss. I am so glad that I knew your Mom. You are all in my thoughts. Maureen

We met Bill and Marg in 2010 when we first moved here. They were so welcoming and kind. I played bridge and Marg really enjoyed a diary I wrote when Gerry and I travelled by ship from Japan to Southampton 2015. Bill played snooker with Gerry.

We miss them but glad they were part of our lives if only for a short time. Sorry we missed the service but our deepest condolences to all their family.
